King Xuan laughed angrily, "Wen Yao, do you know what you are talking about?"

Wen Yao smiled faintly: "Of course I know. I am still young. I am neither deaf nor blind. You don't need to remind me, Your Majesty."

Anyway, he and King Xuan were at odds with each other. In his previous life, he had been against Prince Jing's palace, and even Liang Guogong's affairs were related to him. This kind of person framed Zhongliang and was ambitious. Wen Yao wanted to offend him to death and make him completely give up.

Not only for her, but also for the entire Wen family, King Xuan should not have any ideas about her.

King Li smiled: "What a shrewd young lady, Hengyu, your taste is really extraordinary."

Yuan Rui cupped his hands and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Your Highness Prince Xuan, Yaoyao has a bad temper, so I have to let her go. You, sir, won't argue with a little girl, right?"

If he cares about it, he is being cautious. He is obviously the one who started the trouble first. If Wen Yao tolerates it, Yuan Rui will not tolerate it either.

Yuan Rui was very happy that Wen Yao could confront him boldly, so that he would not be bullied.

Prince Cheng, who has the gentlest temperament, advised him: "Okay, let's all take a step back. It's my uncle's birthday. It won't look good on anyone if we make a fuss. Hengyu, your friend has a strong personality."

Yuan Rui: "It's okay, I don't care. It's better to be more powerful and you won't be bullied. Cousin Cheng will take care of you more in the future. I still have a few ancient books from the previous dynasty at home, which I will give to you later."

"That's it, it's settled. I'll go get it myself and prepare the food and wine. I'll also have a meal at your house."

"welcome."

"Yaoyao, come this way."

Yuanhua was wearing a pleated skirt and wide sleeves today. She held her neck up while walking and did not dare to move for fear of shaking off the jewelry on her head.

Wen Yao bowed and said, "Princes, Wen Yao will retire first."

"Go ahead, Yuanhua's friend, no wonder you have such a bad temper."

King Xuan had a sullen face, snorted coldly and went in first. After taking a few steps, he suddenly smiled and ordered his subordinates: "Go and pick up someone. Isn't Wen Yao tough? I will step on her face on the ground today. Let's see what she does."

arrogant."

The servant flattered him: "Your Majesty is wise, Miss Wen is shameless, and Crown Prince Yuan doesn't know what is good or bad. The two of them are together without any name or distinction. This is a private exchange. It will be enough for them to complain to the Emperor later."

Have a drink."

"What you said makes sense. If my father doesn't nod his head, nothing will happen to them."

Wen Yao and Yuanhua went to the inner residence of Prince Qinghe together. Yi Junyue, Princess Fenyang and others were all there, and they were all familiar faces.

"Ms. Wen, you're late. Sit over here."

"It must be Yuanhua that you didn't tell people in advance that Miss Wen is very knowledgeable about etiquette. You are the most unreliable person in handling affairs."

Unknowingly, Wen Yao was already one of these rich ladies. She attracted the attention of many ladies. They all took a breath when they learned that she was just a daughter of an imperial merchant. Who among you had a better family background than her?

ah.

Yuanhua complained: "I'm not to blame this time. It was Yuan Rui who went to pick me up. He didn't tell me earlier because he thought it would be easy to change clothes and dress up.

I have to get up early in the morning and tinker with my whole body every day until the next day, so I look like this."

Princess Fenyang laughed: "Yuanhua, why are you so willing to dress up? The sun is coming out from the west?"

Yuanhua was helpless: "My grandmother is back, how dare I not listen? I can stand up in front of everyone. I am as obedient as a little lamb in front of my grandmother. I don't dare to breathe. I really can't beat her."

Wen Yao was surprised: "Is the old princess very powerful?"

Yuanhua was still frightened: "She is very powerful. She has been on the battlefield in the early years. Grandma's family has generations of generals. It is strange for us in the palace. We all like to marry the tiger girls of generals. We can't blame the palace for the decline of yin and yang."

"Ha ha……"

Yuan Hua made everyone so happy. How could anyone say that about his family?

Princess Fenyang said helplessly: "The old prince is also very powerful. I have heard my mother-in-law talk about what happened between him and the old princess. In order to marry the old princess, they both took the martial arts exam. If it hadn't been for the imperial court's ban on royal children.

He competes with scholars all over the world for the spot of Jinshi. He is going to take the exam and come back.

It is said that only one who has both civil and military skills can be worthy of the old princess. The two have been in love for a lifetime, and many people in the capital are envious of her."

Wen Yao listened with great interest, and she also envied it, the feeling of a fairy.

County Lord Gao Chuwei and Chen Xinru came together. Chen Xinru greeted everyone, and when she saw Wen Yao, she smiled fakely: "Hello, Miss Wen."

"Hello, Miss Chen."

After the greetings, Chen Xinru sat down below her, feeling very unwilling. After all, she was a noble daughter, and even a businessman was overpowering her. It was so suffocating.

She rolled her eyes to find fault, her eyes fell on Wen Yao's bracelet, and she exclaimed: "Oh my god, is this the legendary blood jade? Miss Wen is worthy of being a merchant, and she can afford to buy blood jade, which is priceless.

Woolen cloth."

Yuanhua is like slapping her, shutting up if she can't speak. Is the merchant eating your rice?

Wen Yao pressed her hand and said, "Miss Chen made a mistake. This is not a blood jade. I bought it for ten taels of silver. It's just a similar color."

"Ten taels of silver?"

This is too cheap, even if it is a replica, it will cost thousands of taels.

Chen Xinru didn't believe it: "I'll give you one hundred taels, just sell it to me."

Wen Yao said politely: "I'm sorry, it's tailor-made and I can't take it off. Miss Chen won't want to buy it after seeing other people's good things, right?"

Ironically, she is short-sighted and loves petty gains.

I said ten taels of silver to be modest. If you want to spend a hundred taels of silver, you just want to get a bargain. Who can't see her little calculation!

"you……"

Chen Xinru was extremely angry. He wanted to scold her but was worried about Yuanhua's bad temper, so he had to endure it.

Yuanhua glanced at her with a half-smile, indicating that she was interested.

Yi Junyue said: "Let's not talk about the bracelet. Let's have tea. The palace has made white flower snacks for us today, so we have to try them."

"Only an old lady in the palace can make Baihua dim sum. It has the most authentic taste. Even the imperial chef can't make it with that taste."

Wen Yao took a bite and felt familiar, but she didn't pay attention. Maybe she had eaten it before.

The Prince of Qinghe is currently the housekeeper of Madam Qiu, and there are many heirs in the Prince's House. To this day, the crown prince has not yet been decided. It is rumored that the old prince likes his eldest grandson Yuanfeng and wants to pass the throne directly to his grandson, but his sons do not agree.

It's a stalemate.

Mrs. Qiu led a young girl over, "Dear ladies, are you satisfied with your meal?"

"Hello, madam, thank you for the hospitality. We are in good hands."

Mrs. Qiu glanced at Wen Yao seemingly unintentionally, and pulled a young girl out from behind her, "This is my niece from my mother's family, her name is Qingying. Please take care of her. I don't have a daughter, so treat her as my own."

"Miss Qiu is so beautiful, let's sit together."

Qiu Qingying smiled implicitly, tenderly and shyly, which was very painful.

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but Qiu Qingying sat next to Yuanhua and tried to please her: "Hello, Miss Yuan, I am younger than you, can I call you sister?"

Yuanhua: "No, then don't I have countless sisters?"

Everyone laughed, and Miss Qiu had a stern look on her face. She didn't expect Yuanhua to be so straightforward.

Although King Qinghe is also a relative of the royal family, his eldest wife is a niece of her natal family and is just the daughter of a prefect from out of town. She is not qualified enough to integrate into the circle of powerful people in the capital.

If she were the daughter of a eldest lady, she would be just as good as a legitimate daughter, but the only children of this generation in the palace were concubines, so they were not worthy of being entertained.

Yi Junyue dealt with everything thoughtfully, giving face to the eldest lady and letting her down the steps: "Huahua is so temperamental, not towards you. She is the most annoying when people call her sister. They say they call her old. In fact, she is the oldest in the first place.

Yes, it’s the biggest thing whether I shout or not.”

Yuanhua was dissatisfied: "Shut up, I will always be sixteen."

The ladies laughed again. As long as I don't admit it, I will always be young.

Qiu Qingying smiled lightly and said nothing.

Yuanhua was so lively. She and Princess Fenyang went to feed the fish. The two of them also had something to say in private. Wen Yao then left alone. Qiu Qingying looked at her intently. Wen Yao nodded: "Hello, Miss Qiu."

.”

"Are you the merchant's daughter?"

This was not a polite question. Her gentle smile turned cold: "Yes."

So what if her family is in business? They are innocent and make money in a clean way. Wen Yao doesn't think where their sense of superiority comes from. When something really happens, apart from screaming and crying, they may not be as powerful as her.

"You stay away from Prince Yuan, you are not worthy of him."

Wen Yao: "..."

She somewhat understood that the eldest lady asked Qiu Qingying to work next to Yuanhua in order to win over Yuanhua and establish a relationship. The ultimate goal was Yuan Rui.

There was Miss Xu from Jiang Xiahou in the front, and now there is Miss Qiu. Yuan Rui is very popular.

"I'm talking to you. I don't know etiquette and I'm rude. How can you come to this kind of place? Get out of here quickly. I won't argue with you."

Chen Xinrule cheered and fanned the flames: "Miss Qiu, don't say that, people will flatter people. Miss Yuan has a good relationship with her, but we don't have such powerful means as others."

Wen Yao chuckled: "Miss Qiu, I don't know what identity you have to ask me to leave? The mistress of the palace? Did you forget your mind at home when you went out? Everyone is a guest, you ask me to leave,

Is it that you don’t understand etiquette, or do I?

And you, Miss Chen, if you want to run against me with Miss Qiu, you can come together. I am Wen Yao and I will challenge you two. I am afraid that I am not Wen Yao against you."

The other ladies lowered their heads to drink tea, not wanting to get involved in their quarrels.

However, Gao Chuwei stood up and said, "Miss Wen, let's go enjoy the flowers together. Don't ignore the so-called people."

"Okay, the county master is right. I'm giving my master some face. Don't take yourself too seriously. In fact, it means nothing."

Qiu Qingying was so angry that a woman from a merchant family was so presumptuous. What shocked her even more was that the county lord, the princess, and several young ladies were all turning towards her. This was wrong!
